The Official February 2011 Waiting Thread

Re: The Official February 2011 Waiting Thread

I'm still deciding as to whether I will be refreshing my page constantly on Friday...if I do this and get a dissapointing score, it will only make things worse than if I approach it casually.

I'm not going to check until Friday night. I'm traveling a good bit of the day and then will try to focus on other things until bedtime. That way, I can cry myself to sleep and be over it by morning. Hopefully.

My plan is to keep busy all day Friday, get back home sometime at night and check for my score. If it's not up I'll try to go to bed and wait till the next morning.

Of course this is only a plan and things will probably not go as smoothly. Instead I'll probably be manically checking my phone for the score instead of keeping myself busy in other ways. This does not sound like a good way to keep myself sane . I'm pretty scared for Friday.

I did that in October. It's so NOT fun to refresh, scroll down, refresh, scroll down, refresh scroll down, refresh, scroll down and then SHITTY SCORE.

That said, I haven't decided whether I'll be refreshing on Friday

Or be ecstatic and jump for joy while you drink fancy champagne and celebrate

*Fingers are crossed

My biggest fear is exactly that...therefore, I think it's safe to say I will approach this in the most nonchalant way possible.

I planned myself a road trip in an attempt to get myself AWAY from the constant refresh. However, it's way more likely I'll just end up refreshing on my phone. Damn technology... and also a lack of self control. Regardless, if things go well the friends I'm visiting that night will be getting rounds and rounds of free drinks.

Is anybody roadtripping with you? Can you give them your phone and tell them to keep it from you at all costs? That's what I'm doing -- GF gets my phone the second I get off the plane and I won't get it back until the day is done.

I'm just upset that 3 times I was PTing consistently around 175 and now probably for the third time I'll have failed to hit even 170 on a real test, and will probably be quite a bit lower than that due to having to blind guess on 1/4 of the LG questions for some reason.

I got it as well. I hate getting trolled by schools. It happened the day the December scores got released (and from Florida Coastal as well).

They did the same thing before the December scores were released. Very annoying.

Considering that UNESCO and Snow plows may have rattled me a little, my overall performance may have been sub-par on the exam. In light of the foregoing, I respectfully elect to refrain from commenting about the Florida Coastal Law mass e-mailing. The senselessness, unprofessionalism, poor judgment and lack of discretion on the part of whoever was responsible for the poorly timed email were clearly in poor taste. Needless to say if I actually performed well answering UNESCO and Snow Plows, I will post what I really think about their action, if not, hello Florida Coastal.

I wasn't really nervous until today. I'm thinking maybe I should turn off email notifications to my phone tomorrow.

At least I have an excuse though-I had bronchitis for like 2 weeks beforehand and then a week later I lost my voice.

Cornell's biglaw placement got a whole lot better...wtf. They went from like 41% to 56%. And wtf Vandy, you went from 48% to 27%.

you gotta remember this year's numbers are likely to be highly anomalous..

anyone else doing just fine/not worried about the lsat and their score until this week? :/

Haha yeah, I was fine until monday night when I decided to check out the TLS forums, and then proceeded to freak the f out...

I was fine until my friend reminded me, now I'm scared as fuck. At least I'm on sick leave from work like, indefinitely-ish.

Yeah, it's pretty sweet. Rail mixers and domestic taps. It's pretty terrible in a good way. There's another place that's 5 bucks, but it's pretty gross and it's only for chicks.

Well if thats the case, i would say they are coming out today! My December score came back on a Thursday and I think the original email date was for that Monday! We might see some gray icons in a couple of hours, and that will be sure to freak everyone out!

I'm now passing the time by thinking about Schrödinger's LSAT - all our scores are simultaneously both good and bad until the email comes.

I'm at work all day in front of a computer, so I'll dutifully refresh the LSAC page every ~30 minutes and post a screenshot if the icons turn gray.

T minus 36 hours (or less) until scores come!

Best friend's bachelor party in Vegas this whole weekend! Maybe a high LSAT score will impress the lovely ladies at Sapphire. Or not.

On my last 15 prep tests I scored 171-179... On this test, I'll be satisfied with a 170, happy with a 173, and jumping for joy with a 176+. Thinking back on the test, the logic games didn't freak me out, and the UNESCO passages made me happy because of the organization of the 2nd part, but I didn't like the grammar passage. Grammar pisses me off. Finished all logical reasoning with time enough to check my answers... so I feel like this test is comparable to my 173-175 practice tests...

Gotta get out of my head now. I wish you all the best of luck.
